History

History- It actually means story of our past. It not only includes humans but the way they lived, their way of living, ideas, thoughts. This term includes all ideas like- constructions, designes, geography but mainly it includes human story and thats why it is called as               HIS STORY or HISTORY.

As per a website the word entered the English language in 1390 with the meaning of “relation of incidents, story”. In Middle English, the meaning was “story” in general. The restriction to the meaning “record of past events” arose in the late 15th century. It was still in the Greek sense that Francis Bacon used the term in the late 16th century, when he wrote about “Natural History“. For him, historia was “the knowledge of objects determined by space and time”, that sort of knowledge provided by memory (while science was provided by reason, and poetry was provided by fantasy).

This page goes with past of our society and country. It includes old monuments, historical buildings and some facts about them.

The first historical building I had visited with such an interest is Qutub Minar, New Delhi, India.
